Lyrics:

They said: 'Release 'Remote Control'!'
But we didn't want it on the label
They said: 'Fly to Amsterdam!'
The people laughed but the press went mad

Oooh
Someone's really smart
Oooh
Complete control, yeah that's a laugh

On the last tour my mates they couldn't get in
I'd open up the back door but they'd get run out again
At every hotel we was met by the law
Come for the party, come to make sure

Oooh
Have we done something wrong?
Oooh
Complete control, even over this song

You're my guitar hero!

They said we'd be artistically free
When we signed that bit of paper
They meant: 'Let's make a-lotsa money
Worry about it later!'

Oooh
Oh I don't understand
Oooh
Complete control, let me see your other hand

I don't trust you
Why do you trust me?
Huh?

All over news spread fast:
'They're dirty, they're filthy
They ain't a-gonna last!'

(Control)
(C-o-n control)
(Control) This is Joe Public speaking
(C-o-n control) I'm controlled in the body, I'm controlled in the mind
(Control) This is the punk rockers
(C-o-n control) We're controlled in the price of the hard drugs we can find
(Control)
(C-o-n control)
(Control)
Direct control (C-o-n control)
We gotta work it up and bring it up and work it out alright
(C-o-n control)
I kick it, I fight it, I get it out, write it
(C-o-n control)
I gotta kick it up
